Pamela Olin

A dominant force in midfield, she is impossible to bypass with her clinical tackling, though her assertiveness occasionally leads her into clumsy, unnecessary errors. She never forgets the time as a youth player she was benched for a full match after trying, in a fit of overconfidence, to clear a ball with a ridiculous mid-air backflip inside the penalty area. Her lightning speed and aerial command make her a coach's ultimate nightmare for any opposing attacker.
